I can't see why anyone would stay that close to Novell now, whether they jump ship to ubuntu or wherever [12:23] We had some awesome questions like "who does dholbach's hair?" and "How can I grow a rocking beard like yours?" [12:23] anyhow, that's off-topic. Apologies [12:24] tonyyarusso: woo!! [12:24] haha [12:24] hehe [12:24] YoussefAssad: that's ridiculous. Novell is only a sponsor of openSUSE, like Canonical to Ubuntu. It doesn't dictate how they act [12:25] LaserJock, jono: heck, I'll just show you methinks [12:25] furthermore, I think people have plainly overreacted to the whole issue. But hey.

Tell me when you will update it [12:29] then they passed the questions on at the end [12:29] Seveas: the bot responded when i said 'like QUESTION: How do people ask questions?' but didn't store it. maybe stop it from reacting if it doesn't match /^question:/i ?

[05:24] we also offer hosting of bzr repositories [05:24] so there /are/ additional (and particularly interesting) features that you can use on Launchpad today that aren't available elsewhere [05:24] so we are a bit of a unique platform. === IRCn00b is now known as n00b [05:25] okay.

However, this makes it very hard to extract patches later to modify them, send them upstream, etc. Also this means that new upstream versions are a pain, since they generate a lot of rejections when applying the package diff.gz to them. [08:02] With split-out patches it is much easier to send them upstream, keep track of them, develop them, etc., since you always see which changes belong together. [08:02] The ideal state is an unmodified tarball from upstream, plus clean and separate patches, plus the packaging bits in debian/.

The actual name for the patch target varies, I have seen the following ones so far: patch setup apply-patches unpack patch-stamp. You have to look in debian/rules how it is called.

However, it is pretty popular since it is sufficient for most tasks, and long ago I wrote a script 'cdbs-edit-patch' which most people can live with pretty well. This script is contained in the normal cdbs package. [08:39] You just supply the name of a patch to the script, and depending on whether it already exists or not, it will create a new patch or edit an existing one. [08:39] simple-patchsys is the cdbs module that 90% of all cdbs-using source packages will use === mc44 [n=mc44@ip-81-170-79-163.cust.homechoice.net] has left #ubuntu-classroom ["Leaving"] [08:39] BTW, "cdbs-edit-patch" is slightly misleading, since it actually only applies to simple-patchsys.mk.

[08:46] == ed: dpatch == [08:46] dpatch is a pretty robust and proven patch system which also ships a script 'dpatch-edit-patch' [08:46] The two most important things you should be aware of: [08:46] * dpatch does not apply debian/patches/*, but instead applies all patches mentioned in debian/patches/00list, in the mentioned order. That means that you do not have to rely on asciibetical ordering of the patches and can easily disable patches, but you have to make sure to not forget to update 00list if you add a new patch. [08:46] (forgetting to update 00list is a common cause of followup uploads) [08:46] * dpatch patches are actually scripts that are executed, not just patches fed to 'patch'. That means you can also do fancy things like calling autoconf or using sed in a dpatch if you want. [08:47] using dpatch for non-native patches is rare, and normally you do not need to worry about how a .dpatch file looks like === ompaul [n=ompaul@gnewsense/friend/ompaul] has joined #ubuntu-classroom [08:47] but I think it's important to mention it [08:47] so if you ever want to replace *all* instances of Debian with Ubuntu in all files, write a dpatch with a small shell script that uses sed === matsubara [n=matsubar@200-171-140-32.dsl.telesp.net.br] has left #ubuntu-classroom ["Leaving"] [08:47] instead of doing a 300 KB static patch which won't apply to the next version anyway [08:47] The manpage is very good and has examples, too, so I will only give an example here: [08:47] smart [08:47] This will edit an already existing patch and take care that all previous patches are applied in order: [08:48] cd /whereever/you/unpacked/the/source/ed-0.2 [08:48] dpatch-edit-patch 05_ed.1-warning-fix [08:48] === Webspot [n=webspot@5ac2770a.bb.sky.com] has joined #ubuntu-classroom [08:48] so that's exactly like cdbs-edit-patch === MOSMarauder [n=Chris@port-83-236-28-24.dynamic.qsc.de] has left #ubuntu-classroom ["Verlassend"] [08:48] well, dpatch-edit-patch even has shell completion (!) [08:48] s/shell/tab/ [08:48] ok, now we edited a patch, that's pretty easy, right? [08:49] now let's create a new one; this is different from cdbs-e-p, due to the explicit '00list' file [08:49] dpatch-edit-patch foo.dpatch 06_testsuite-Makefile.dpatch [08:49] [08:49] echo foo.dpatch >> debian/patches/00list === Webspot [n=webspot@5ac2770a.bb.sky.com] has joined #ubuntu-classroom [08:49] ^ this will append 'foo.dpatch' to debian/patches/00list [08:50] This will create a new patch foo.dpatch relative to the already existing 06_testsuite-Makefile.dpatch. If your patch is very confined and does not depend on other patches, you can leave out the second argument. [08:50] alright? === kNo` [n=kNo`@i07m-89-86-214-149.d4.club-internet.fr] has joined #ubuntu-classroom [08:50] there is actually yet another patch system I wanted to introduce (quilt), but I'll skip this for time reasons [08:51] you could continue after simon finished talking bugs [08:51] maybe we can get to that on Thursday, or I'll explain it separately === Snarius [n=zach@adsl-227-114-143.rmo.bellsouth.net] has left #ubuntu-classroom ["Leaving"] [08:51] and there is existing documentation anyway [08:51] so, just some more theoretic words, which you can use to calm down your fingers :) [08:51] === A glimpse into the future === [08:52] As you saw, Debian source packages do not have any requirements wrt. structure, patch systems, etc., other source package systems like SRPM are much stricter wrt that. This of course means more flexibility, but also much more learning overhead. [08:52] As a member of the security team I can tell tales of the pain of a gazillion different source package layouts... :) === Webspot [n=webspot@5ac2770a.bb.sky.com] has left #ubuntu-classroom ["Leaving"] === jetix [n=mihai@acxpert-stejari3.botosani.rdsnet.ro] has joined #ubuntu-classroom [08:52] Therefore some clever people sat together the other day to propose a new design which would both give us a new and unified source package and patch system that uses bzr (with a quilt-like workflow). This would also integrate packages and patches much better into Launchpad and revision control in general.

[08:57] pitti, thank you [08:57] (but patching source packages is not easy...) [08:57] pitti: you did good, thanks [08:57] amnesia: were you able to follow the examples? I didn't see many questions [08:57] pitti: i know this is a little off topic, but what's the recommended form of documentation for packages (ANSI C, commandline app, internationalisation crucial) ? [08:57] pitti: I thought it was good.. I've bee through the wiki page, but the step by step examples with real packages was very useful. [08:57] pitti, you were great :) [08:57] pitti, any talk about debdiff? is it a diff of a diff?

If you want to ask a question, just write "sfllaw: I have a question about..." in #ubuntu-classroom-chat and I'll answer it at the approriate juncture. [09:06] Thanks! === Chastell [n=shot@dnk51.neoplus.adsl.tpnet.pl] has joined #ubuntu-classroom [09:06] --------------------------------------- === Cyril_ [n=Cyril@ARennes-356-1-108-3.w86-220.abo.wanadoo.fr] has joined #ubuntu-classroom [09:06] Ubuntu is one of the most popular GNU/Linux distributions out there. And it also has one of the smallest development teams for its size. [09:06] The secret to this is huge community involvement. We have hundreds of people who help with packaging, translations, technical writing, and bug management. [09:07] And boy do we have a lot of bugs. About 300 to 400 new bug reports get filed every day from users, from stable releases like Dapper to bleeding edge stuff from Feisty. [09:07] The first people to look at these reports are the BugSquad. We do a very important task, drinking from this firehose. And that's to make sure that the reports that remain in the bug tracking system are useful. [09:07] You can find our bug tracking system at https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+bugs [09:07] Right now, it holds over 20000 open bug reports, spread across the entire distribution. That includes main, restricted, universe, and multiverse. [09:07] That's a lot of bugs. The source of these reports can be found here: http://tinyurl.com/yf4hq9 [09:07] These are untriaged reports: ones which have never had a human eye look at them. It's likely that they are missing information, duplicate another report, are filed against the wrong package, etc. Or, if you're lucky, they're perfect. [09:07] :) [09:08] To triage a bug report, you need to do a few things. [09:08] First you have to determine if it's actually a bug. The easiest ones have crash reports in them. Let's go find one. [09:08] To start, we go to http://launchpad.net Click on "The Ubuntu distribution" [09:08] In the search box, let's look for a popular package. Bash is a good one to try, so let's ask for that. === mode/#ubuntu-classroom [+o sfllaw] by nalioth [09:09] Click on 'Source Package "bash" in Ubuntu' to be taken to its package page. [09:09] This shows you Bash within the context of the Ubuntu distribution. Bash also has another page, a product page, which we won't look at right now. === mode/#ubuntu-classroom [-o pitti] by nalioth [09:09] In the left sidebar, you should see a "Bugs" link. Click on that and you'll be taken to the bug tracker. This will list all the bugs inside bash right now. [09:09] There are quite a few untriaged bugs, but they are intermixed with triaged ones. Let's narrow down our search to only show untriaged ones. Start by clicking the "Advanced search" link. [09:09] You want to make sure that: [09:09] Status = Unconfirmed only [09:09] Importance = Undecided only [09:09] Assignee = Nobody [09:10] Click the "Search" button. [09:10] You should end up at http://tinyurl.com/yawhpj which gives you a nice list of bugs to look at. [09:10] Bug 57413 looks like a promising crash. Click on its description and it will open up. You can also get to this bug by going to http://launchpad.net/bugs/57413 === La_PaRCa [n=La_PaRCa@bas12-montrealak-1167975436.dsl.bell.ca] has joined #ubuntu-classroom [09:10] You see that the bug reporter has included his crash dump, which was caught by apport, our automated crash profiler. But Longer hasn't really given us enough information to solve the problem. [09:11] Here's the minimum information for a complete bug report: [09:11] 1. Version of the software. Is it in Dapper, Edgy, Feisty? What about a specific version number? [09:11] 2. Steps to reproduce the bug. [09:11] 3. What was expected to happen. [09:11] 4. What actually happened. [09:11] Since this bug is incomplete, we'll want to ask for more information. You do that by taking responsibility for the bug and having a conversation with the reporter. [09:11] Implicitly, we know the answers to 3 and 4, because Bash crashed unexpectedly. [09:12] And the crash report has the version of bash buried inside (3.1-5ubuntu1). [09:12] Still, we need to ask for reproduction steps. [09:12] If you're logged in, you can click on the "bash (Ubuntu)" task table up near the top. This allows you to modify the state of the bug. [09:12] There are some fields there: [09:12] Package: this is the source package of the bug. Bash is correct for this one. [09:12] Status: change this to Needs Info. This means other people won't try to triage this bug. [09:12] Assigned to: Me. You're claiming responsibility for having a conversation with the reporter. [09:12] Comment on this change: Here we should ask the reporter for more information. [09:12] E-mail me about changes to this bug report: Yes. This will subscribe you to any new comments about this report. === makke [n=makke@p50917F36.dip.t-dialin.net] has left #ubuntu-classroom [] [09:13] shawarma points out that apport, which generated this crash dump, wasn't in Dapper. [09:13] So it must be an Edgy bug. [09:13] But apport also tells you the difference between an Edgy bug and a Feisty bug. [09:14] at2000 asks: who should modify these fields? [09:14] (in the DistroRelease: field) [09:14] You, as the triager, get to set these fields. [09:15] so someone officially in the BugSqad team? [09:15] Yes. In fact, you get to set them before you join BugSquad. === somerville32 [i=somervil@fctnnbsc15w-156034082109.nb.aliant.net] has joined #ubuntu-classroom [09:15] Although it's good form to be know how to change them properly before you start doing so. :) [09:15] ic [09:16] But that's why you're here! === Panzerboy_ [n=stelu@unaffiliated/panzerboy] has joined #ubuntu-classroom [09:16] So... [09:16] You've set the proper meta-data on the bug and have taken responsibility. [09:16] In the comment, we would ask for the version of Bash: [09:16] "Hi Longer. Could you please describe the precise steps you performed to crash bash? Thanks." [09:16] Click "Save Changes" and you're done. [09:16] When you get an e-mail from Longer responding to your question with the appropriate steps, the bug can be considered complete. You've got information on how to reproduce it and there's even a handy log file for a developer to look at. === maniacmusician [n=maniacmu@24-151-15-140.dhcp.nwtn.ct.charter.com] has joined #ubuntu-classroom [09:17] We can now pass this on to the development team to fix. [09:17] Click "bash (Ubuntu)" again and change: [09:17] Status = Confirmed [09:17] Assigned to = Nobody [09:17] Click "Save Changes". === Chris7mas [n=floydian@89.39.4.39] has joined #ubuntu-classroom [09:18] rulus asks: where ends the task of the Bug Squad team? here? === dsas [n=dean@host-84-9-170-224.bulldogdsl.com] has joined #ubuntu-classroom [09:18] The BugSquad team actually works on all parts of bugs. [09:18] However, the job of a triager ends here. [09:18] ah, ok [09:18] Basically, it's like the first response you get at a hospital. [09:19] i see [09:19] You want to manage the huge flow of incoming bugs so that people fixing them aren't overwhelmed. === sahin_h [n=sahin@dsl5400DBCC.pool.t-online.hu] has left #ubuntu-classroom ["Konversation] === ..[topic/#ubuntu-classroom:nalioth] : Welcome to Ubuntu Open Week, Nov 27 - Dec 2 between 3pm and 9pm UTC | For the schedule, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuOpenWeek | Daily sessions start at 1500UTC - to see this in your timezone, visit http://tinyurl.com/ykqc67 | Logs at http://people.ubuntu.com/~fabbione/irclogs | Please keep support questions in #ubuntu | Class discussions+questions in #ubuntu-classroom-chat | Current Session: Ubuntu Bug Squad === mr_daniel [n=daniel@e177149162.adsl.alicedsl.de] has joined #ubuntu-classroom [09:20] La_PaRCa asks: is it part of the triager work to mark duplicates?

Like a request to be taught how to use synaptic. === Sparrow- [n=Joni@GMKCMLXXXIII.dsl.saunalahti.fi] has joined #ubuntu-classroom [09:21] Or perhaps it is a user asking for a new feature to be implemented. [09:22] [09:22] You can distinguish between features and bugs this way. [09:22] A feature request is a wish for new functionality that the program isn't expected to do. [09:23] Whereas a bug is where the program fails in some way. It obviously should be doing something more correct. [09:23] You can respond to these by: [09:23] Setting Status = Rejected [09:23] And writing them a nice note in the comment explaining why it was not a valid bug. [09:24] You can get templates of these nice notes at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Responses [09:24] But you are welcome to put in your own personal touches. Just remember to be friendly and polite, not terse. [09:24] Smiffeh asks: should you build up some serious experience with triaging before you apply to join the bugsquad?

These are filed by people who did not look or could not find a bug report identical to their problem. So they filed a new one.

[09:34] Gaim lives in main. [09:34] And provides a description of what's wrong. [09:34] Plus a handy URL to the bug. [09:35] samge1 asks: should trivial bugs (like a typo) be submitted as a bug or is it better fix them right away somehow (like a new suggestion for a translation)? [09:35] It is best to file a bug report and point to a fix. === noXe [n=noxe@dslb-088-076-239-230.pools.arcor-ip.net] has left #ubuntu-classroom [] [09:36] This fix could be a new translation in Rosetta, or a patch attached to the bug report. [09:36] This way, your fix doesn't get lost if it is a priority. === jonib1 [n=jonas@ua-83-227-144-18.cust.bredbandsbolaget.se] has left #ubuntu-classroom [] [09:36] If you are a developer, you are encouraged to use bugs to manage your fixes, even if you can uploda packages into Ubuntu. [09:36] That way, you don't forget what's on your TODO list. === pisi_de [n=pisi_de@195.227.105.180] has left #ubuntu-classroom [] === theller [n=chatzill@www.tascon-gmbh.de] has joined #ubuntu-classroom [09:38] finalbeta asks: What bugs should we report, I've reported hardware bugs (none got fixed), small software bugs (none get fixed), I've reported +-30 bugs in the last few months and only one crasher got fixed. Yet it will take 6 months before the fix will show up (in the next release). What bugs are the ubuntu people capable of handling?, should we just go upstream whenever possible? In short I mean, I should not bother reporting fglrx / a === mcg [n=mcg@135-142.2-85.cust.bluewin.ch] has joined #ubuntu-classroom === Qbyt is now known as Smiffeh [09:38] It is worth reporting bugs both to Ubuntu and to upstream. [09:38] In fact, our bug tracking system has the capability to track upstream bugs. [09:38] ? [09:39] Ubuntu developers don't have a lot of resources, so we prefer to let upstream authors fix bugs unless they are critical. [09:39] #ubuntu-classroom-chat [09:39] But we use the bug tracking system to monitor upstream bugs. If an upstream has fixed something major, we will often backport that fix. [09:39] sorry === danbuntu [n=dan@82-45-115-193.stb.ubr03.maid.blueyonder.co.uk] has joined #ubuntu-classroom [09:40] The goal of a triager is to reduce the clutter in the bug tracking system. [09:40] You shouldn't be closing old bugs, as they might still be useful and relevant. [09:40] quit [09:40] exit [09:40] But new bugs coming in should be examined for duplicates. [09:41] This reduces the clutter in the bug tracking system. You want to choose the definitive bug with the most complete information, and make all the other duplicates refer to it. If information is scattered around, you can edit the description of the definitive bug. [09:41] mcg: /quit is the command you type if you want to leave the server, /part if you want to leave the channel === cga [n=cga@213-140-6-101.ip.fastwebnet.it] has left #ubuntu-classroom ["90%] === bouliagmenos [n=dasdas@85.75.138.213] has joined #ubuntu-classroom [09:41] The description of a bug is mutable, so that you can summarize the discussion held in the comments. [09:41] This is really useful because difficult bugs may have pages and pages of comments. [09:42] Any bug can have its description edited, and a good summary saves people a lot of time sifting through the conversation. [09:42] To change the description, click the "Edit Description/Tags" link in the sidebar. Try to clean up the description with a good summary of: Version, Reproduction steps, Expected result, Actual result, and a Diagnosis of the problem. [09:42] You should also make sure the Summary is something useful, so people browsing for duplicates can find a relevant bug easily. [09:42] Bad descriptions are: "Program crashes." [09:42] Good descriptions are: "Program crashes with 'Error 12: Can't find my brain on line 382.'" === Panzerboy_ [n=stelu@unaffiliated/panzerboy] has joined #ubuntu-classroom [09:42] A good description is easily searchable using keywords people would think of. === bouliagmenos is now known as xar` [09:43] And error messages are good because they are often unique to the problem. [09:43] Click "Change" after updating the text. === imcsk8 [n=ichavero@148.229.1.11] has joined #ubuntu-classroom === TheCode [n=Linux@p54BD766A.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #ubuntu-classroom [09:43] nabend! [09:43] a7p asks: what about #27810 - should this one be closed? Who does it if it should be done? === mcg [n=mcg@135-142.2-85.cust.bluewin.ch] has joined #ubuntu-classroom === kaenya [n=Alger@a25a.ilmari.tontut.fi] has joined #ubuntu-classroom === gandalfn [n=gandalfn@i02m-87-89-253-156.d4.club-internet.fr] has left #ubuntu-classroom [] === tuxar [n=jmorelli@201.216.221.9] has joined #ubuntu-classroom [09:44] This is a good example of how Ubuntu bugs can be tied to upstream bugs. [09:44] If you look at the task table, you'll see three different lines. [09:45] libaio (Ubuntu) [09:45] upstart (Ubuntu) [09:45] libaio (Debian) [09:45] So the first two have to do with Ubuntu packages. [09:45] And the third has to do with Debian ones. [09:45] If I were going through this bug doing triage right now, I'd do the following things. [09:45] - Realize that it has nothing to do with upstart, and reject it. [09:46] To do this, I click on the upstart (Ubuntu) task and set its status to Rejected. [09:46] Like so. [09:47] - Notice that Fabio claims that this isn't a problem in Ubuntu because the brokenness was never imported. === hernan43 [n=ray@ray.user.msu.edu] has joined #ubuntu-classroom [09:47] - Test to make sure I cannot reproduce the problem. === Kurmiic [n=Owner@80.232.249.242] has left #ubuntu-classroom [] === Hacim07 [n=micah@204.73.103.253] has joined #ubuntu-classroom [09:47] If everything works properly, I set libaio (Ubuntu)'s status to Rejected. === tonyyarusso [n=anthony@d235-240-148.home1.cgocable.net] has joined #ubuntu-classroom [09:48] In order to add upstream tasks, you will note two links under the task table: [09:48] "Also affects: +Upstream... +Distribution..." [09:48] If a bug affects another distribution like Fedora, Guadalinux, or Debian, with its own packages, use the +Distribution link. [09:49] If a bug is caused by an upstream program's misbehaviour and is not a packaging bug, use the +Upstream link. === AsinoVolante [n=AsinoVol@81-178-224-9.dsl.pipex.com] has left #ubuntu-classroom ["Leaving"] [09:50] You will have to file the bug in the other bug tracker, but then you can paste that bug's URL in to the "Request fix in a..." page, which will link the bugs together. [09:50] Every day, the status of this bug will be updated with the upstream's status. [09:50] Plus, you can search for bugs which have been fixed by upstream. === macbrody [n=abrodman@84-72-181-248.dclient.hispeed.ch] has joined #ubuntu-classroom === wastrel [n=wastrel@dsl254-127-242.nyc1.dsl.speakeasy.net] has joined #ubuntu-classroom [09:50] davmor2 asks: What is your description of security? would it be the root password problem a while ago === andre2 [n=andre@dynadsl-080-228-200-149.ewetel.net] has joined #ubuntu-classroom [09:51] A security bug is one that allows local or remote users to access data or privileges that they shouldn't normally be able to. [09:51] This definition is a bit flexible and up the discretion of the security team. === hunger [n=tobias@gprs-pool-1-022.eplus-online.de] has joined #ubuntu-classroom [09:51] breezy's user password exposure definitively falls into this category [09:51] If you file a security bug, only the people subscribed to it will be able to see it. [09:52] rulus asks: how do you know it also affexts upstream? === ferox [n=ferox@d83-190-227-196.cust.tele2.it] has joined #ubuntu-classroom [09:52] sfllaw's definition is pretty good; I'd extend it to 'or allows a local/remote user to bring down a service' [09:52] the wiki page SecurityUpdateProcedures has some examples of what can qualify, too. === macbrody [n=abrodman@84-72-181-248.dclient.hispeed.ch] has left #ubuntu-classroom ["Leaving"] [09:53] It's easy to tell whether a bug is caused by us. [09:54] if a package doesn't install, the description is incorrect, or something doesn't show up in a menu, then it's probably Ubuntu's fault. [09:54] If a program crashes or misbehaves, it's probably an upstream problem. Especially if Google tells you that people using other distributions have the same problem. [09:54] ok, i see [09:55] It is usually a good idea to Google for your bug to see if: [09:55] - You can find other people with your problem. Often, these things will show up on newsgroups or forums (like the Ubuntu Forums) === apuar [n=apuar@219.94.61.146] has joined #ubuntu-classroom === fathead [n=fathead@82-35-170-62.cable.ubr01.craw.blueyonder.co.uk] has joined #ubuntu-classroom [09:55] - You can find a bug in our bug tracking system already. [09:56] - You can find a bug in someone else's bug tracking system (like Debian, Fedora, OpenSuSE, etc.) [09:56] davmor2 asks: does this mean you need to be running bugzilla too in order to cross reference? [09:56] You don't have to sign up for other people's Bugzilla if you don't want to. [09:56] You can concentrate on whatever packages you like. === stalefries_ [n=stalefri@pool-71-113-25-221.sttlwa.dsl-w.verizon.net] has joined #ubuntu-classroom [09:57] But if you want to pitch in for a few days to help with Firefox bugs, you should probably sign up for the Firefox Bugzilla, so you can report bugs to them. === coumbes [n=coumbes@72.2.162.254] has joined #ubuntu-classroom [09:57] It makes a lot of sense to concentrate on a set of packages. You can quickly become a local expert in some software. === cmn [n=carlos@200.red-82-159-198.user.auna.net] has joined #ubuntu-classroom [09:58] davmor2 asks: I have reported a lot of bugs which have been marked as duplicates due to me not being able to find anything similar is there a way to better search for a bug? === [Leo] [n=uby@adsl-ull-247-115.44-151.net24.it] has joined #ubuntu-classroom [09:58] sfllaw: I meant more to cross reference an ubuntu bug with a redhat bug === ntovar [n=ntovar@200.109.105.242] has joined #ubuntu-classroom [09:59] To cross-reference with Red Hat, you should have a Red Hat bugzilla account to file bugs into their system. [09:59] If the bug already exists, linking them together is free. === stalefries_ is now known as stalefries [09:59] okay [09:59] But to be polite, you should comment in the Fedora bug with the URL to the Ubuntu one. === dcomsa [n=daniel@89.137.6.153] has left #ubuntu-classroom [] [09:59] That way, our distributions can work together to fix things. [09:59] For your other question about duplicates... [09:59] I had a problem with a new ATI card, how would I report a bug like that? How would it be addressed? [10:00] makes sense more devs that way === LaserJock is now known as Laser_away [10:00] I've found the best way is to use Google. === fliegenderfrosch [n=manuel@cable-static-232-59.eblcom.ch] has joined #ubuntu-classroom === darkpixel [n=darkpixe@ppp189-127.broadband.gorge.net] has joined #ubuntu-classroom [10:00] haha, use Google to find launchpad bugs :) [10:01] But to be sure, I often browse all open bugs for a particular package and look for potential descriptions to match. [10:01] If you spend lots of time on a package, you will remember things that are similar. [10:01] Sadly, search in Launchpad is not as good as it could be. [10:01] We're running short on time. [10:01] For more information, please see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HelpingWithBugs which describes how to help with bugs and how to join the BugSquad. === fliegenderfrosch [n=manuel@cable-static-232-59.eblcom.ch] has left #ubuntu-classroom [] [10:01] We hang out in the #ubuntu-bugs IRC channel on irc.freenode.net.
